Enhance Twitter! Add a search box with search suggestions on twitter.com to search tweets instantly!



If you are a regular visitor on twitter, you might enjoy my new project -

The Problem -
Have you ever wanted to search tweets (on twitter.com) easily from the twitter.com interface?

The solution -
I have a written a script that does just that. It is a greasemonkey script and requires Firefox. To download the script, or for more information, visit the project page.

Update -
Now with search suggestions!!$#!

In the screenshot above, note the big search box on the top of the page. This is added by the script. More enhancements to twitter.com's UI are coming..
